About the epoxy: That cost me about £75. The sound has changed a lot. The sound became more defined, the sustain improved a lot and it got more "zzzzingggg". About the pickguard: that's easy for a sunburst bass. Black or brown tortoise

Cool shoes!

I have done a lot with my MIM fretless. It started out like this: I then had the fingerboard epoxied by a Dutch luthier: Then came the classy part: I switched the pickguard to a black one. Technically, I've replaced the pickups with Fender Custom Shop 60's pickups, which I got quite cheap. They sound so incredibly awesome! Lastly, I've replaced the bridge with a Gotoh 201. The bass now looks like this: I couldn't be happier with it. Oh wait, I can. If it had a matching headstock

I've come to the decision that the Gorm option would work best for me. I want a solution quickly and cheap. I'm gonna power it all (probably) with a One Spot, and I'll see later what I do with a case.

The best cab ever, of course:

I think with the coco bolo it will become too flashy. I'd go for chrome.

I wish I was UK based...

Still have to have it, of course A few good things: -Playing for 3500 punkers, completely freaking out. -Playing in Leipzig as the headliner on a huge ska festival. 3000 German ska fans, totally out of their mind.

I like slapping, but the problem is many bass players don't know how to limit the amount of slapping in their songs. It's always either everything or nothing.

A few months ago (when I wasn't on Basschat yet ) I made a demo with my jazz band called Premium. It's on Myspace, check it out! [url="http://www.myspace.com/premiumjazz"]http://www.myspace.com/premiumjazz[/url] Basses used are Yamaha TRB5II and Fender Jazz Bass fretless. Let me know what you think

PM me if you're selling it...[/quote] Unfortunately, it's not mine... About the Gator: that's a bit too expensive for me...

[quote name='clauster' post='606684' date='Sep 23 2009, 03:45 PM']Try Gogling Gorm pedalboard. The DIY option but only £3 -£5 depending on size.[/quote] I am now considering this. I found a good building topic on TB, but there is one tiny problem: how to get it to gigs? Build a case?

He he, I have thought about buying a tweed rack case for the head. However, I've chosen not to do that, because the Aguilar rack cases have no possibility of closing the front and back. The rack case does, and is easier to carry.

I always take a poop about half an hour before playing. Also, I tune about a thousand times just before playing, even though my basses rarely detune. Longer before? I'm always ready to leave about an hour before I actually have to leave. And I always have the feeling I forgot something. And oh yeah, I never, ever listen to the music I'm going to play on the day itself. Never.

Nobody?

Yeah, but they were Jazz pickups, that's a bit different, huh?

Could you maybe describe the difference in sound between the Wizards and Nordstrands?

Right, I've taken the gamble and ordered Gotoh GB7s. I hope they'll fit.

I am in doubt. I maybe want to have Nordstrand Dual Coils (or Fat Stacks) in my bass instead of Seymour Duncan Basslines, because I think I can get more out of the bass with Nordstrands. Problem is: they cost me about £200 extra and I don't know if they'll fit one-on-one. What would you guys do?
